There’s a reason captchas are so prevalent.

They’re easy to implement, cheap to run, and work for the absolute majority of people.

There’s always going to be someone it doesn’t work for, and in the end, it’s just about what’s “worth it” for the developers and admins.

Would you rather focus on optimizing Lemmy for it to scale for milions of users or spend the time developing and alternative captcha solution which would open it up for a couple hundred more people?

I’m not trying to dismiss the issue of accessibility, but it’s also important to keep reality in mind.
